ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH, GARLIC, AND APPLE SOUP
Butternut squash, sweet potato, carrot, and garlic roasted in large pieces and then added to onion, celery, apple, and vegetable broth. Immersion blender does the trick for thickening without adding fat. Use curry powder in place of cayenne if you prefer more savory flavors than spicy. Apple juice can also be used in place of cider, and chicken broth in place of vegetable.

SQUASH, GINGER AND APPLE SOUP
This easy soup is delicious. It is wonderful proof of the theory that ingredients that come into season together are naturally complementary. Autumn, then, is the time to simmer up a pot of this golden potage. The ginger adds a lively kick to an otherwise sweet and mellow dish. You will not be dissappointed!! Serves 8 as a first course, or 4 as a main course. Prep time is the time it takes to bake the squash...

HUBBARD SQUASH AND APPLE SOUP
Almost called this Squashalsauce it's such a great accompaniment to pork chops. This was easy and could also be done with a butternut squash or pumpkin. The curry is up to you. 3/4 of the family felt it improved it, but unfortunately didn't know my husband didn't like the stuff. I prepared my hubbard squash a week earlier (baked it whole with a lid cut out on the top for 2 hours) and froze it in baggies, but you can also use canned pumpkin.
